[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 759153, member: 32260"] The locked system (no new installations), can be initially configured by an advanced user to allow system updates/upgrades and software auto-updates (in most cases). That is not a big deal when using SRP default-deny. Also on Windows 10, there are some very useful Universal Applications (auto-update is made without UAC prompt). The updates of desktop applications can often trigger UAC prompt, but in many cases that can be solved by forcing updates via scheduled tasks. Finally, the beginner can use the very silent and secure setup. When using scheduled tasks for software updates, default-deny can be set to [B]block the elevation of all processes on SUA [/B](via UAC setting), because most applications can run as standard user without elevation. My wife uses such locked setup for a few years without any problem. [/QUOTE]
